Among the many Spanish flamenco guitar brands, Conde Hermanos is one of the most popular. The brand began in 1919 when Domingo Esteso, who had worked as a craftsman with Santos Hernandez in Manuel Ramirez's workshop, opened a workshop in Gravina,Madrid. Esteso's nephew, Faustino Conde, joined him and his brothers, Mariano and Julio,
in this workshop. After Esteso's death, they continued this brand under the label 'Viuda y Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso'. When Esteso's wife passed away, the label was changed to & Sobrinos de Domingo Esteso/Conde Hermanos' and from this time on, the name Conde Hermanos started to be used as the brand name.
In the 1960s, all the models were redesigned to be unique, and the half-moon cut Media Luna head shape was also adopted as a symbol of high-end models from this time on,dramatically expanding their fame and market share.
Conde Hermanos guitars have been used by many famous flamenco guitarists, including the famous Paco de Lucia, and are still a must-have for flamenco guitar fans today.

[Description]
Conde Hermanos Gravina workshop 1990 “Paco de Lucia” model is now in stock. It is a so-called flamenco negra (black) model made of Indian rosewood. The “Paco de Lucia” is printed in large handwritten letters in the blank space below the brand label, which is unique to the Gravina workshop, unlike the Felipe workshop, which produced a similar model. The relationship between this rare guitar virtuoso and Conde goes back to the 1960s, when Paco continued to use rosewood instead of the traditional cypress wood, and he constantly purchased the same model until the 1980s, when Faustino of the Gravina workshop was still alive. This is the most important topic in the history of the brand, along with the discussion of the legitimacy of Faustino's Domingo Esteso.
The sound is hard and rigid, as is typical of Conde, but it has more overtones, depth, and a slight softness to it than the immediacy and condensation of the brand's later guitars. It also has a slightly romantic sound, a characteristic not heard in later guitars of this brand. Of course, it is a flamenco guitar that lives up to its name with its powerful expression and excellent response and separation of each note. There are no cracks or other major repairs, but the guitar has been played a lot, so there are scratches and dents throughout,and the wood is exposed around the soundhole. The golpe board has probably been replaced, but there are many scratches under the golpe board.
